Introducing Jaeger
2017-04-14
Uber is pleased to announce the open source release of Jaeger, a distributed tracing system, used to monitor, profile, and troubleshoot microservices.
Jaeger is written in Go, with OpenTracing compatible client libraries in Go , Java , Node , and Python . It allows service owners to instrument their services to get insights into what their architecture is doing.
Jaeger is available now on Github as a public beta. Try it out by running the complete backend using the Docker image along with a sample application, HotROD , to generate interesting traces.
We hope that other organizations find Jaeger to be a useful tool, and we welcome contributions. Keep up to date by subscribing to our mailing list .
